I am the mother of 3 fabulous grown success stories, and grandmother of the 4 most perfect grandchildren ever. They are the best part of the story anyway.
Apparently there hasn't been a town that can hold me yet. Traveled in the US, Mexico, Brazil (really, really hated it), Guyana (not in Africa), and the Bahamas (I love the Bahamas, the people, the ocean, the sky...sigh). I don't regret the journey, I am just glad to be back in the US for awhile...Mexico is one of my favorite places(Who would not love Santa Rosalia?) and I will return there soon.
Most recently I visited the VLA (Very Large Array-think of Contact), outside of Socorro, NM. It was and is so overwhelmingly beautiful. It literally takes your breath away. New Mexico is awe-inspiring anyway.
I am, for now, presently in Long Beach, CA. There's no place like home. I am a California girl through and through. It is the most perfect place on earth to me.

At least, until, well, you know...It's a big world out there. I might get the call of the wild dogs in Borneo or the howl of the wind in Wyoming or a job offer in Australia, OR fall in love (God Forbid) and find it essential to make some sort of move or have a full-blown panic attack or something. Who can really say in this crazy universe of ours? I only know that if any of this should happen, or something even more unexpected and completely irresistible, I will surely respond. Stay or leave? Break a heart of break my heart? After weighing all of the options intellectually and wisely, and taking smart advice from those who love me, I will make a perfectly logical decision. After which the following will occur: I'll make a run for it...

My Interests



Science Fiction, considering how much I love the Roswell/Area 51 mythology (or is is factual info?). Travel-I have been 20 states, 5 countries and there's more to come. As Jerry Jeff Waler put it, "I was blessed by a Gypsy bone, that's the reason that I was cursed to roam." It is next to impossible for me to stay put in one place. I land for awhile and then just Have To move on. I love books, movies, the ocean...sigh...the beautiful Sierra Nevada mountains, clouds, stars. I have an endless enchantment with life...Thank you Father in Heaven for letting me come to Earth. It is endlessly beautiful here.br

I'd like to meet:

The truth is I like to meet lots of people. I am a total extrovert and talk to everyone. I have heard some of the most incredible stories from people along the way. I want to just keep traveling and meeting anyone who comes along my path because isn't that what it is all about? Touching the lives of others and having them create something new within your essence? I am full of dreams but I carry the dreams of others with me. "Go to Steamboat Springs, Ilove it there.." then I get the whole story of a life someone had there. So many people feel trapped by their lives or they are afraid to live so they tell me what they want to see or do and ask me to do it. I have slips of paper with dreams written on them from people I have met. It truly is a glorious life and I am blessed every day by the people I meet.

Don't forget to look up.

Television:



MONK---I totally love this show. Because I am on the move so much I don't get alot of TV so I recently spent 5 days in Twin Falls, ID where I got to watch 2 whole days of MONK!! He is incredible. I really prefer movies to TV but when I do watch TV it is [adult swim], which cracks me up, South Park, King of the Hill and Sponge Bob..yes, I do watch cartoons when I can. They are a better reality. The Oblongs is too funny for words.

Books:



I just finished The Ice Queen and Skylight Confessions by Alice Hoffman..OMG! Fabulous! She writes books that change you inside somehow. Practical Magic, Here on Earth...anything she had ever written is wonderful. Accidental Tourist, Celestial Navigation, Dinner at the Homesick Restaurant (I have read this book 10 times and the rest of her books at least 5 times each) so...anything Anne Tyler, Good News From Outer Space-John Kessler (I highly recommend this book to sci-fi freaks, such as myself), Ender's Game, Douglas Adams series (duh!), Van Vogt, Vonnegut (he will be so missed), and so it goes...

No Worries

I have been offline for awhile and boy, have I missed it. I moved from Long Beach to Artesia. Now I not only work but live in Little India. It took me 6 weeks to go from nothing to my own place. Yeah!...

Quotes from Anything Else by Woody Allen

Anything Else This is my FAVORITE Woody Allen movie. It speaks to me more than any other, and I love them all...yes, even Mighty Aphrodite. Amanda: Don't be mad at me, but I ate. Jerry Falk: You ate?...
